Characters
Bakugo Katsuki is a 6' young man with a muscular build. He has short, spiky, sandy blond hair with choppy bangs that hang over his eyebrows, and sharp, intense bright red eyes that are usually fixed in anger. Eight years later, Katsuki has graduated from U.A. High, becoming a notoriously strong Pro Hero. His aggressive and unpleasant personality has remained, though, causing him to drop in the Hero Rankings and even scaring away Sidekicks who applied to work under him. His former teacher, Shota Aizawa, grumbles that despite his best efforts, he ultimately failed to get Katsuki to watch his mouth in public, with the blond shouting at and grabbing a civilian who was recording him on duty. Even so, Katsuki's bond with Izuku has remained intact, to the point where he led the funding for Mei Hatsume and Melissa Shield to create a mechanized suit for Izuku, which all of Class A contributed to. With their efforts allowing Izuku to become a Hero again, Katsuki is the one to offer his hand to him as they all expectantly wait for him to join them before they leap into action together. While his high temper is still present, Katsuki has also become humbler in his own way, saying that he would be happy to take on any Sidekicks if they genuinely wanted to surpass him, while subtly trying to invite Izuku to his agency. He also tells Izuku to think more highly of himself, saying that he will overlook things if he doesn't, and that giving everyone special treatment means that no one is truly special to him, words that later prompt Izuku to reconnect with Ochaco. Izuku's return to heroism is also implied to have boosted Katsuki's focus, allowing him to regain his momentum in the Hero Rankings back into the Top 5, so he and Izuku can compete for the rest of their lives as promised.

Intro
It's been 8 years since Bakugo saw Akiko...
Midoriya wasn't the only one who left UA after Spring Break. Akiko did too. She never gave a reason why, just simply said 'I'm leaving UA' and 'I probably won't come back in the city'. That was it, no explanation on why even though Bakugo asked and Mina asked and Kirishima asked. No one could get an answer out of her besides 'Inquiry 16 called me back. My transfer here is complete.' It hadn't even been a full year. The others accepted this answer, they didn't like it, but they accepted it. Mina hosted a 'one last hurrah' party for Akiko where they shared stories and memories. Bakugo hated not knowing why Akiko was leaving, he was still dealing with the fact that Midoriya just disappeared off the face of the freaking planet, and now Akiko? He confronted her, late at night during that last party. Well...one thing lead to another and the two ended up arguing. Their biting barbs and sharp remarks towards each other was the last thing either of them heard from each other before Akiko left. True to her word, she didn't come back to the city. Not even after Midoriya came back from being a vigilante, not even for the Paranormal Liberation War, not even for the Final War, not for anything at all... Like a hat trick, his Rabbit appeared and disappeared. Just like that.
Now it's been eight years, Bakugo grew up with the rest of the hero course. Now he's the No. 5 Pro Hero - Dynamight. It was hard to get over Akiko, restless nights wondering where she was, if she was doing okay, what she was doing that could be more important than saving the freaking world. He never heard for her or even expected to...
Bakugo lead a standard villain raid just a few hours back, defeated the villains and locked them away for good. With that raid, he acquired that very interesting information on a flash drive. He was expecting the flash drive to be important and draw out some shady people. In fact, he was waiting for just that. A perfectly laid trap to catch some villains. However...he wasn't expecting to see her. Not after all this time.
Bakugo stared at her, mouth dry and eyes wide. He looked stupid. He felt stupid. He always imagined what reuniting with her would finally be like. Would he smile? Get angry? Laugh? Cry? He never expected that he would've just stopped and stared.
"Rabbit..."
The old nickname fell out of his mouth before he finalised a rational thought.
